TIE GREAT ID4HO.

Idaho is the youngest country, OK.
cept Alas ks, that is subject to the stars
and stripes. The names of all our
sister territories and states-Oregon,
Washington, Montana. Wyoming, Ne
vada-aro familiar words in the east,
and their praises are being continually
sung, but Ct Idaho, the richest and
granJest of them all, but little is said
or known. Idaho hes as yet made ne
effortto advertise herself, and as the
railroads wero interested in settling Ne
braska and other eastern states first,
t1ey have meyer "boomed" Idaho rs
taey have other eections. 10 fact it
seems as though they had always
fought immigration to idaho, the fare
always being, until tho recent reduc-
ton, far beyond the means OF the or
binary Immigrant, But Idaho CAP no
longer be kept back. Eastern people
have at last heard of its wonderful
climate, its productive valleys, its in
,xhaust;ble mines, and ''its-1staat stock
ranges, and every mail is bprdened
with letters from every direction to the
various postoffices, newspapers, county
officers, and Influential meu, seeking
information. They are beginning to
family grasp the idea that we have nine
months If summer in Idaho instead OF
nine months winter, rs is the case with
NEST countries lying IS far north as
Idabc. The story has been told often
but never believed, and is not believed
yet 1t seems impossible to convince
the average eastern man that Idaho is
not bowling Wilderness, the principal
inhabitants Of which are blizzards and
Indians. What we want to dispel
these illusions is On Immigration Bur-
eau, and the present legislature should
lose no time in creating one. Put good
honest men ct the head of it and ap-
propriste plenty money to carry il
through, and it will be as .bread cast
upon tho water"

young Bl;ckensderfer met his death

loose on Caldwell trade during the sum-

1t is perfectly preposterous 10 introduce
pepsin and other artificial Solvents into the
stomach, in the expectation that they will as
.sist digestion by acting on the food itself.
They will not. Nor is it possible to thus
overcome dyspepsia. The only way to con
quer that disorder, and prevent the numerous
diseases aud disabilities which it assuredly
provokes, is to renew the activity of gastric
action by Strengthening the stomach. Hos
letters stomach .bitters eradicates the most
inve,erate forms of indigestion by restoring
vitality TO the ahmentary organs, and those
which are tributary to them. The liver, the
bowels, the kidneys and nerves, no less than
the stomach, experience the invigoratmg
effects of that standard tonic, which possesses
alternate properties and greatly enhance its
beneficial influence, and give permanence
to its effect, which they would not otherwise
possess.

1.-THE PRISONERS DREAM"
The good mans dream has oft been told,
OF angels in white with hsrps Of gold;
That sinner whose dreams are only terrestrial
Meelly yields up epalm to visions celestial.
Let this preface suffice to pave the way
To the cell where dreaming prisoner lay
Blu. though his body was there confined,
His thoughts were as free as the summer wind.
He was back again in his childhood days,
Joyfully singing hymn Of praise
In the village church, on Christmas morn;
When Jesus the Savior of men was born.
He saw once more his distant home,
Ere he had left it to wander and roam;
And his mothers face SO tender and true,
When she kissed and babe him last adicu.
He had searched far and wide for "Aladdin's
lamp"
In foreign lands he had pitched his camp,
Till his country home Ger the distant sea
Was naught but pleasant memory.
The sleeper awoke, butthe vision had brought
A ray of hope, with comfort fraught.
That the spirit of one to him most dear
Still guarded him and was lowering near.
And he said to himself that Christmas day,
I've guardian angel to watch and pray;
Though the past is gone beyond recall,
There's future outside the prison wall
Let the dead past bury its dead with sorrow
Live in hope for the coming morrow
/ am travelling east and the light that see
Is the glad free light Of liberty.
